Let's say you have a million dollars and you're giving it to charity. By your own personal set of values, would you make sure your name is tied to the donation or would you prefer to remain anonymous?

If I was retired, anonymous

If I had my own business or want to promote something, I would donate with my name attached

 

Seems douchey, but It's true.

This is similar to what Rockafeller and the Robber Baron's did back in the early 1900s. They'd create monopolies and bring in billions, but donate a fraction of it with their names slapped on it to seem like heroes.

Anonymous, announcing it is like "look at me! I'm not selfish!"

 

Unless you actually put in effort to promote the cause, in which case putting your name on it makes other people want to follow in your footsteps.
